All-New Extension Blog!

As well as Henry's continuing adventures below, Ed has just begun a new extension. This is a 9 month project, starting 1 May 2018, due to
end early 2019. Read all about it (with plenty of photos) on our Facebook page.

Background

My name is Henry and I'm one of the founders and directors of pickupaproperty. I have renovated a number of properties in the past and have
finally managed to buy what I hope will one day be my dream house in the countryside. It's in Lincolnshire, and is some way above sea level so I hope to be
here for many years.

The house is in a pretty bad way, and I have two small boys running around so it can be manic at times. I am juggling my work
for pickupaproperty with project management and quite a bit of hands-on work, so I'm busy seven days a week.

We moved here for a better quality of life (though not sure it feels like that yet!), more space and room to grow our own veg
and keep a few animals. We are embarking on
some of these projects as we go along as well so forgive me if I stray from strict renovation at times, but I hope to keep you
up to date with what is going on and hopefully provide some useful information on a "live" renovation as I go.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments or sign up to our properties to renovate email alert service.
